BGP Behavior Monitoring and Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Border Gateway Protocol, an important inter-domain routing protocol, has a number of vulnerabilities. Little is known about how BGP actually performs in today’s Internet. We designed a framework, BGP Assistant, to monitor and analyze BGP traffic. Number of BGP Updates and Route convergence time are used to characterize BGP behavior. Preliminary results with the Oregon Route Views BGP show that BGP Assistant can help the network operator to diagnose the network, identify the anomalous ASes or IP prefixes, and respond to them in real time. Further work is in progress to extend its functionalities and better understand BGP behavior.

Hot Potatoes Heat Up BGP Routing
The separation of intradomain and interdomain routing is a key feature of the Internet routing architecture. However, intradomain routing protocols such as OSPF and IS-IS do have a (sometimes significant) influence on the path-selection process in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). In this paper, we argue that researchers should revisit the “interface” between the two tiers of the Internet routing ...
متن کاملManaging BGP Routes with a BGP Session Multiplexer
This paper presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of BGP-Mux, a system for providing multiple clients access to a common set of BGP update streams from multiple BGP peers. By providing multiple clients access to the same set of BGP feeds, BGP-Mux facilitates many applications, including: (1) scalable, real-time monitoring of BGP update feeds; (3) new routing architectures that requ...
متن کاملAnalysis of BGP Update Surge during Slammer Worm Attack
Although the Internet routing infrastructure was not a direct target of the January 2003 Slammer worm attack, the worm attack coincided in time with a large, globally observed increase in the number of BGP routing update messages. Our analysis shows that the current global routing protocol BGP allows local connectivity dynamics to propagate globally. As a result, any small number of edge networ...
متن کاملBGP-4 Protocol Patterns and Their Impact on QoS Behavior
This paper is aimed to describe the INTERMON approach for inter-domain BGP-4 analysis based on pattern matching on public BGP-4 route repository data. An overview of different BGP-4 protocol analysis methodologies is presented and compared with the approach followed in the INTERMON project. The paper presents the usage of the pattern analysis technology in realistic inter-domain performance man...
متن کاملRAPTOR: Routing Attacks on Privacy in Tor
The Tor network is a widely used system for anonymous communication. However, Tor is known to be vulnerable to attackers who can observe traffic at both ends of the communication path. In this paper, we show that prior attacks are just the tip of the iceberg. We present a suite of new attacks, called Raptor, that can be launched by Autonomous Systems (ASes) to compromise user anonymity. First, ...
